This may be a bit early for the “told you so”s as people are still celebrating their 41st vote, but come on folks, I told you so. Brown told WBUR today that he plans to meet with our governor and urge the release of federal stimulus money, the same 787 billion stimulus money that has turned into a gigantic boondoggle.

He also plans on meeting with Gov. Deval Patrick on Thursday, and said he will urge the governor to speed up the release of federal stimulus dollars.

Predictably the states have been somewhat slow at spending the stimulus money, but we have been absolutely swarmed with evidence that the money has been badly mismanaged. In fact, it got so bad that the liberal Boston Globe ran a piece highlighting some of the disasters. Trust me, if the Globe went so far as to bash the product of Obama’s first legislative win, then you better believe there is something wrong with it.

So while Marco Rubio in Florida is using the fact that Charlie Crist supported the 787 Billion stimulus to accurately expose Crist for the RINO he is, Brown now that he has been elected will ignore blatant hypocrisy. Where is the hypocrisy? Well, Brown in his third debate clearly stated that he was OPPOSED to the 787 Billion stimulus, but I guess unlike our other infamous senator, Brown was against it before he was for it. In fact Brown mentioned several times that the stimulus was ineffective, so how can he in good conscience advocate to spend money that he himself labeled as ineffective just a few weeks ago?

Simple, because like it’s been said many times here, Brown is a big government liberal Republican. I am not much for labels and plenty of deluded folks here in Massachusetts bought the whole “fiscal conservative” mantra, but facts are persistent and annoying little things.

Here is what a conservative should be doing.

Instead of going to our governor and groveling for the release of taxpayer money into programs that do nothing, he should be going to the governor and urging him to HALT all further expenses from the so-called stimulus package. Furthermore he should discuss and urge the governor to take all this money and ship it back to the Federal government so that it can be used to pay down our freaking deficit! A true politician of the people elected by the people would have no problem doing so. Not only would it send a message to the rest of the country, but it will serve as the only moral and rational example of how to actually govern. Immediately stopping a program that has been hemorrhaging money left and right would truly be an example of fiscal conservatism, common sense and a spit into the face of the establishment.

But what do we get? Not only does Brown look like a hypocrite, but he does exactly what every other slimy politician does. He immediately begins siphoning money from the federal coffers in an attempt to look good in front of his constituency. Guess he figures the money will be spent anyway, might as well attach his name to it and look good doing it. With a 12 trillion dollar debt, a 2 trillion dollar deficit and countless examples of waste, fraud and corruption what other solution is there? STOP SPENDING! It is the only damn solution and it is infuriating to see so many people utterly hoodwinked by this fraud, a fraud that has been exposed on this website NUMEROUS times.

How many pro-Brown supporters will have the guts to admit that instead of voting in change, they just voted in another Republican?

By the way remember “having it notarized” in our case means ALWAYS carrying a video camera (or a camera that does video) with you at all political events. You might not be able to stop the politicians from lying to you but you can at least hod them accountable for what they say. Then when they do go back on a promise they made when they were in “campaign mode” you can at least link where the campaign promise was made and compare it to what the politician is doing in office. Do it before the election so at least when the politician talks that politician will know that the promise will go outside the room. That would limit the tactic that the politician often uses of saying one thing in one room and saying the exact opposite in another.

Remember while the revolution won’t be televised. It will be on youtube. If the political event isn’t videotaped and put on youtube for a wider audience it is like the event never happened in the first place.

Anywhere and everywhere have the capability to video what is going on. Anywhere and everywhere bring a video camera (or a camera that does video).

It should become almost like a joke. Oh here comes the tea party people with their cameras. They are just like Japanese tourists.

If it isn’t videoed it is like it never happened. I searched youtube to see if anyone videoed the Olympia Jan 14 event but nope, so for most of the world, for most of the state, it never happened. Let’s not make that mistake again!

Change it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the fall that’s all
But the world looks just the same
And history ain’t changed
‘Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

Wow look at new type of politician this Scott Brown. He is so different than the Republicans of the past. He won’t betray us like the Republicans did after the so called “Republican Revolution” of 1994.

Wait a moment he said what?

Sorry after Scott Brown’s election the world looks just the same.

And history hasn’t changed.

Cause I had seen this after 1994.

So, I guess I will tip my hat to the new revolution, but not expect much to come out of it just like not much came out of the old revolution.

It isn’t hypocritical to oppose the stimulus but then claw and clamor for $$$ after the legislation is passed. He would be a dreadful servant to his constituents if he did not. It would be like standing by and letting massive amounts of wealth be redistributed from Massachusetts taxpayers to special interest vultures elsewhere across the country and world. He should be fighting to get back every last dollar that was looted from the citizens of Massachusetts, and channel as much of it as he can into reservoirs that are in closest proximity to the middle class tax payers of that state. Refusing stimulus funds is a brain-dead strateejury that is guaranteed to backfire politically on any fool like Mark Sanford who thinks he’s scoring points with tea baggers. Think about it. The Boston Tea Party was not a protest of taxes per se. It was a protest of taxes without representation, which is exactly what occurs when a moron like Sanford thinks he’s looking out for the greater good by allowing his constituents to be robbed blind.

There are plenty of things about Scott Brown to be wary of, but neither disloyalty to his party caucus nor looking out for his constituents are among them.

First Scott Brown, then this. Are we just going to throw one set of progressives out to get a whole different set of progressives?

Like we did in 1994!

From Michelle Malkin’s blog (unfortunately though she is still pushing the “lesser of two evils” justification for party loyalty crap.

GOP cap-and-tax 8′er Mark Kirk won the GOP primary in Illinois for the Senate seat formerly occupied by Barack Obama.

After pandering to enviro-nitwits and casting his vote in favor of the largest energy tax increase in American history based on shoddy science and Al Gore-led fear-morning, Rep. Kirk promised Illinois voters he wouldn’t pander the same way if held higher office. He’s also a squish on the Second Amendment and life issues, a supporter of the massive tobacco tax increases to pay for Obama’s SCHIP expansion/Demcare Trojan Horse, and an expedient new critic of earmarks.

We must not make 2010 the year of the RINO. If the choice is between a RINO and a Democrat JUST DON’T VOTE!
